From Idea to Impact—Celebrating the Power of Published Purpose
12 Books, 8 Weeks, Endless Impact: Why Our Self-Publishing Cohort Is Changing Lives
When people think about publishing a book, they often consider it a distant dream—too expensive, too complex, too overwhelming.
But at Victorious You Press, we believe in disrupting that myth.
This spring, we proved that with the proper guidance, structure, and support, you can self-publish a powerful, professional book in just 8 weeks—without the stress and without doing it alone.
💥 What Happened?
In February, we launched a Self-Publishing Cohort designed for professionals, experts, and faith-based leaders ready to transform their knowledge, story, or message into a published work. Over 8 intensive weeks:
Authors received live training on structure, editing, formatting, and publishing.
They were guided through every step—from concept to completion.
Every manuscript was refined, polished, and published under the Author’s imprint.
We ended the program with a book launch celebration and graduation, amplifying their voices and validating their vision.
Each author now walks away with more than a book—they leave with a platform, a product, and a plan.
Here is what a few of the participants had to say:
“Honestly, I did not know what to expect when I started the classes. I knew I wanted to write a book, and that was basically it.
For me, the classes were as early as 2:00 a.m. as I'm based in Kenya, but would you believe it? I would join the class each week.
And what had been a mentally tucked-away idea began to materialize into something else, courtesy of Dr. Joan T. Randall and Leslie J. Cottrel of VYP.
The course did more than just teach me how to publish; it helped me find my voice and begin to heal. It helped me believe that my story was worth telling and that someone out there was waiting for just that book to give them hope and a future.
Many were shocked when I told them that I began to write the book on 12 February 2025 and that eight weeks later, it was published.
The course, the powerhouses behind the course, and the ladies who were part of the cohort, guided, supported, and poured their hearts into it.
I shall remain forever grateful to all of them.”

“Whatever it is, how you tell your story online can make all the difference.”
“The Self-Publishing Cohort didn’t just teach me how to publish—it transformed me. Over eight weeks, I learned the full process: shaping my manuscript, designing the cover, formatting, uploading to Amazon, and even registering with the Library of Congress.
With the live training, real-time coaching, and peer accountability, I gained the CONFIDENCE to publish—not just once, but again and again. One of the highlights was uploading our books live, side by side with 12 amazing authors.
What made the experience even more special is knowing that lifetime support from the Victorious You Press team is in place. They continue to walk alongside me, answering questions and cheering me on as I turn future messages into income-generating, impactful books.”
